The fact I'll die alone without ever feeling the love of a woman besides my mother and without a child saddens me. So, as kind of a consolation, I want to know... How does it feel? Being in love and being together, the sex part, just living together and all that...

Well, it has its ups and downs... I'm in the process of getting a divorce and my youngest son is soon to be a year old.

For me it's been a learning process and I don't have any regrets, not even with the situation I'm in right now. We know each other well, and it has been good for almost 10 years, but it's time to find something that makes me happy. I've neglected a big part of myself for the past years, but it's a choice I've made to be able to have two great children and a partner to share things with. We are just not compatible as a husband and wife any more.

The children aspect brings me more joy than anything else I've experienced, but that's probably a personal trait and not for everyone. To watch them grow and become goof machines is a big part of why my life has never been better.

10/10 would recommend both, but they are a ton of work, a source to misery and failure, but that's a part of the experience.
